Jonesboro-Week 14

Latest update from Elder Phillips.....it has been another great week in the mission field.  I am doing good, just trying to do the best that I can with what I got.  The work is going good, we have a baptism this upcoming weekend, its pretty sweet.  Jonesboro is great and the ward is super nice and now I know the area super well.  We have been looking for new investigators but the work is a little slow right now.  Well this week we had a miracle that I wanted to share with y'all.  We were visiting potential investigators and the first one we knocked on the people that lived there had moved...the lady that lives there was prepared to hear this message.  She is now one of our new investigators.  Well that was a pretty awesome testimony builder for me.  I want to wish dad a late Father's Day and hope he had a great day.  I appreciate him and everything that he taught me.  In closing let me share with you a little piece of one of my favorite talks by one of m favorite Apostles.  This piece of his talk has helped me a lot and it applies to every single one of us.  "I do not know who in this vast audience today may need to hear the message of forgiveness inherent in this parable, but however late you think you are, however many chances you think you have missed, however many mistakes you feel you have made or talents you think you don't have or however far from home and family and God you feel you have traveled, I testify that you have not traveled beyond the reach of divine love.  It is not possible for you to sink lower than the infinite light of Christ's Atonement shines." Elder Holland-April 2012  I just want to tell you that I know that this is true, none of us have traveled too far from the path, we can always come back no matter how far off we think we are, his atonement is infinite and eternal.  I love y'all so much and miss you too.
